    Loaded Nachos !!!
    Greg D.

    Was in the mood for some nachos and some real deal authentic tacos..... Just a heads up that this taco joint is really a take out joint ... they have some seating for about 16 people or so ... they do have table service .......... We were three people so we ordered 9 tacos total; 3 grilled steak, 3 salted beef & 3 grilled chicken .... All were very delicious super fresh & tasty; must add their green sauce to everything & a Lil of their hot sauce ... ask for sour cream & they give you the bottle ... nice !!! Super fresh guacamole with nachos !!! Also had their loaded nachos also delicious .... Very clean & neat form the front to the back of the house ... prep area & kitchen wide open .... Definitely our new taco joint !!! Thanks, Greg D & Family

    Steak/Shrimp Tacos
    Christian M.

    I'm not usually a fan of Mexican food so I came in with low expectations. A very small private little place, they took my order rather quickly and prepared it quickly as well. I ordered a steak taco and a shrimp taco as well as pastor Torta. The steak taco left much to be desired. I was a bit disappointed with the portions and the steak was quite bland and unseasoned, but with the lime and red/green sauces it came with, it helped merry the flavors more. The vegetables were chopped unevenly so presentation wise couldve done better in that regard, but as I took a bite, although the steak was tender it left me wanting more spice and salt overall. The shrimp was slightly better, had a nice touch of seasoning on it that was accentuated by the acidity of the lime. The radishes on the tacos also left a nice fresh crunch that helped each bite go down smoothly. My favorite part was the pastor torta, I threw it in my air fryer to add crunch to the outside of what was typical sub bread, but the meat itself was tender, and a good ratio of meat/cheese/vegetables which was helped by avocado that added creaminess to the sandwhich. It was a decent size as well and there seemed to be some sort of a thousand island dressing I thought was solid as well. Was definitely not lacking in flavor comparably to the tacos. All in all, a decent little spot but a bit pricey. $19 for 2 tacos, a torta, and a snapple, perhaps I will try something else on the menu and have a better experience.

    My tacos were ok. Just ok The reviews did not match what I had. The best taco was the salted beef! I wish I would have gotten all three as salted beef.

    Ok.. from the outside I was like "oh, god" but inside I was very surprised. I thought it was going to be a deli but it's not. The workers are very very nice, patient and friendly. The atmosphere is very plain with the exception of a few sombreros hanging on the walls. The restaurant is small but clean. Our order consisted of steak tacos, chicken tacos, a shared nacho platter, cheese quesadilla, and the Mexican sodas. The tacos come one of two ways : Mexican (just cilantro) or American (lettuce sour cream). I got the American way because I hate cilantro. The chicken was good but I'd pass next time because I don't like dark meat chicken.. the steak though..... dio mio..... HEAVENLY! The nachos were very good too - cheesy goodness! The quesadilla was very big and filled with lots of flavor. I would deff come here again!

    This is a great location, is clean and easy to order. Food looks great and taste delicious. I ordered 4 tacos(2 Al Pastor, Carne Enchilada and 1 Chicken) I recommend the enchilada tacos. I will come back for more.

    Bistec Taco

    I was craving tacos on a Friday night and decided to order them for pick up, came across Compadres. Order was ready in 7-10 minutes. When seeing it from the outside it looks like a cute Mexican deli on the corner. Walking in they have their seating for dining in, fresh homemade sweets and drinks in the coolers. I like the atmosphere of the restaurant, everybody was very friendly. I ordered 3 bistec tacos and it comes with lemons, radishes& hot sauces. The tacos come in 2 flour tortillas with meat of your choice, onions, & cilantro. I drenched my tacos in the sauces and it was soooo good! Definitely satisfied my taco craving for the week. Great authentic Mexican food in the neighborhood, check them out, they have a nice variety on their menu! Looking forward to eating here again!

    This place is tasty, and very reasonably priced. There are so few Mexican restaurants in this area and this is definitely the best.

    I met a friend for dinner. Since she is from Brooklyn and I was staying in Queens she suggested…read moreKandela. EXCELLENT CHOICE! There is a parking lot and if you are lucky you get a spot! The parking lot serves all the businesses in this collection of businesses. The entrance is gorgeous with a big Dia de Los Muertos mural as you enter. The person greeting me is very friendly. The entire restaurant is very clean and has ample seating. I was seated while I waited for my friend. I ordered a red wine sangria. It had a good amount of fruit in it, was perfectly chilled, and not too sweet. We each ordered fajitas. I ordered shrimp. I was able to sub flour tortillas for corn. The portion was so big I had enough for another meal. Everything came out together, perfectly hot, with sides of salsa and seasoned sour cream. There were also sides of rice, black beans, and cotija cheese. My friend has a non alcoholic Mojito. I also had a tamarind Jarritos soda. We each ordered a sweet. My friend had churros. They came with three flavors of dipping sauce. I ordered the house made flan. The custard was great! The caramel was burnt. I feel the prices are very reasonable considering this is NYC, and the cost of food now a days. If I am ever in the area again I will definitely return to try more of their extensive amazing menu!

    Went for taco Tuesday and I can say I've had better flavorful tastier tacos. Maybe it Iwas an off…read moreday or because it was busy being taco Tuesday but my steak and chicken taco left nothing to be desired. Missed the mark on the seasoning & sauce as they were bland! My partner ordered the battered chicken cutlet and guess what?? No seasoning at all! We took it home and made chicken parm. Extremely disappointed. We look forward to going out having a good time with food and drinks and this was horrible. Not our 1st time coming here but always want to give businesses a second chance. They failed. Margaritas you can't go wrong. Kudos to others that find their food exceptional and delicious. Margaritas were good. Can't go wrong there. Music was also good just hard to hear and communicate but that doesn't bother me. My opinion Have a great day
